Vision-Based
Control
(Tech
ID 2066)
The need for automation
in nuclear materials processing is accepted and many efforts across the
DOE are underway to meet this need.  One
area that is providing a successful implementation path in this effort
is the use of vision technology to allow automation to be deployed in
a more safe and effective manner. Vision systems can be used to allow
the robot to move in the confines of a glovebox, hot cell, or permacon
with greater safety. Vision systems can provide accurate information about
the confines of the hot environment as well as real-time process of control
with operator input. This Research to Development to Application effort
will provide the baseline technology for achieving Vision-Based Control
of automation in nuclear materials processing environments.
